"I had a tree come down during the high winds. It smashed my mailbox and post. He used his chipper and removed the tree. Great company to work with! I will be using them again to clear underbrush and remove other trees on my property."

"They called the same day i requested a service quote and came that afternoon even though it was raining like crazy. Joe gave us a quote and two days later the crew showed up and did an amazing job of removing a tree from our creek and cutting some branches from other trees. They removed a the debris and left the area clean. I highly recommend this company to any one."

"Andrew from Second Nature lawn care came out to do some touch up seeding this morning. He was wonderful. He has been here to do the fall seeding before and did a terrific job. He did the same for me today. He was thorough, informative and such a delight to have at my house. I could not have been more pleased. Second Nature is really fortunate to have him in their company!! I appreciate him so much and am grateful to Second Nature for for responding to my request so quickly !"

Customers say: Quality work

"Cody and his team were fantastic and friendly. They not only cut down the original request of a dead tree but also help me with a very large tree I knew was not in good shape. I asked them to please cut everything into 14 inches so it would fit our wood burning stove. They not only cut both trees but actually measure each large branch/trunk to make sure the length was correct. Cody did everything the way I wanted it. They also stacked everything up so we could easily split all the wood. Cody would have split it if we wanted it done. The best part was the very fair cost he gave me to do both trees. I highly recommend this company. You will be very happy with their work."

Arborists FAQs, answered by experts

You need to remove all branches affected by Dutch elm disease. If your tree has several affected branches, you will probably need to remove the entire tree. First, consult a pro to be sure that you’ve correctly identified it as an elm tree. Make sure the tree is properly disposed of with a plastic covering or through debarking, chipping, or burning.

The fastest ways to remove a tree stump are by grinding it or burning it.

Stump grinding is often the quickest method, with professionals able to chip away a stump and its roots within a single session. You have the option to hire a professional stump removal service or rent a stump grinder to do it yourself. However, it's important to note that these machines can be large, difficult to transport, and dangerous to operate without prior experience. For safety reasons, hiring a local arborist or landscape specialist is often recommended.

Burning is another fast option. Before you begin, check your local burn laws. The process involves drilling holes into the stump, filling them with vegetable oil, and waiting 24 to 48 hours. Afterward, you can add charcoal bricks to the surface and light the fire, which must be attended at all times.

For a more affordable but much slower alternative, you can use potassium nitrate pellets to accelerate the natural decomposition process. This method typically takes four to six months.

It depends on the problem, the affected part of the tree, the risk of the pathogen spreading, and the overall health of your tree. Many diseases, fungal infections, and insect infestations can be successfully treated, especially if the issue is only in a few branches. However, if a disease is too widespread, too severe, too easily spread, or in the roots, the tree will likely need to be removed.

It depends on the type of tree. Typically, late spring on the cusp of winter is ideal for trees about to emerge from dormancy and produce new buds. That said, late fall is ideal for certain deciduous trees prone to bleeding sap. Avoid trimming trees in early spring, when they’re prone to disease.

Using vinegar to kill tree roots is just one of the clever ways to use vinegar around the house. The method works best when you apply vinegar as directly to the root system as possible. For example, if the old tree roots and stump are currently exposed, drill holes in the tops of the roots and pour undiluted white vinegar into the holes to soak into the plant. Remember that vinegar can kill the surrounding grass and plants should it pour over the edge.
